Mr. Boege was authorized to make necessary repairs on Center street. Mr. Fesenfeld was authorized to put a 4-inch discharge valve in the tank. H. Boege was awarded the contract to paint the tank two coats for $25. A splendid rain fell yesterday and must have done an incalculable amount of good. There are hundreds of barley fields which will now mature a crop, that a week ago were considered totally valueless, he wheat crop also will mature, and altogether the prospects are much brighter than any one had reason to expect. We are indebted to Mr. Bold for the following record of rainfall: April 1st, seven hundredths; 2nd, nineteen hundredths; 4th, twenty-six hundredths. Total fifty-two hundredths. The barometer last evening was quite low—28.90. The Planters hotel under the new management, is now fairly open to the public. The thorough cleaning and renovation which it has undergone makes it look like a new house. New carpets have been laid in every room and furniture has been added wherever needed. In short, it is a model hotel and every department has the close supervision of Mr. Ed Dunham, the proprietor. It is said that Gen. Volney E. Howard will stump the county in favor of the new constitution. Mr. Wartenberg announces that he will be a candidate for re-election as Town Marshal. A shipment of forty thousand orange and lemon wood canes was made from the Los Angeles depot on Thursday. The canes were cut by one of the city nurserymen on an order from an eastern dealer. Thirty new volumes have been added to the school library. These books were bought with the balance left of the fund raised by the exhibition last fall. Sixty-five dollars of that fund were expended for purchasing the school bell. The balance, $25, has been expended for library books. The Literary Union will wrestle with the new constitution nut Friday evening at the Presbyterian church. The discussion will no doubt be quite animated. Some of the heaviest guns of the union will open upon the constitution. It is to be honed that some of the defenders of that much-assailed document will rally to its defense. Mr. B. Drevfus will plant two hundred acres of his land at Cucamonga in olive trees next year.

Next year this school district will be entitled to two additional teachers. If school room is not provided for them, we shall witness the spectacle of one teacher teaching in the morning and then vacating the room to another teacher for afternoon work. It is impossible to procure suitable rooms in town by renting and the rental would probably amount to more than interest on the bonds. Additional school room is imperatively demanded—this city is growing. As the school trustees said in their open letter in our last week's issue, sixty-three new families have moved into the district during the year, increasing the number of school children to 126. These children need school room, and it is up to the well-wishers of the community to provide it for them. Not to do so would be criminal. Anaheim has been selected as the place for the meeting of the Democratic county convention, which will assemble at the opera house on Saturday. The convention will be followed by a banquet at 7:30 p.m. Chairman Johnson, Secretary Baker and J. J. Schneider were appointed as a committee on arrangements. Deputy District Attorney Homer Ames, M. Nisson and J. J. Schneider were made a committee to formulate a call for the primary election and the county convention. A resolution was adopted declaring for Hearst for the presidency.

The building will be a handsome edifice architecturally and its seating capacity considerably enlarged. Loara school district was formed on Tuesday by order of the supervisors, embracing the district at West Anaheim. Katella district remains a part of the Anaheim school district. L. A. Evans, J. W. Duckworth and H. M. Wessler were appointed trustees of the new district. The Farmers' Institute held at the opera house on Thursday and Friday merited a larger attendance. Many interesting papers were read during each of the five sessions. A very creditable display of fruits arranged in the center of the hall was conspicuous in its variety. Prof. Cook of Claremont, who was in charge of proceedings, was met at the train by a committee consisting of Gerald Sandilands and W. B. Hutchinsen and escorted to the opera house, where a number of people had gathered. Rev. Chapman pronounced the invocation. An address of welcome was delivered by Richard Melrose, and responded to by Prof. Cook.

Olinda will play a series of games at Athletic Park with Los Angeles pines, beginning on Sunday afternoon next with Hamburgers.

The remains arrived here yesterday and the funeral will occur this morning at 11 o'clock from Mr. Krick's residence on Los Angeles street. The remains will be interred in the Anaheim cemetery beside those of that consolidation of the two municipalities would be effective in bringing an era of prosperity to the smaller community and in making possible the execution of a program that would add to the taxable wealth of Orange county. Asserting that amendments made to the bill had corrected many of the deficiencies in the measure as first introduced, Miller asked that the chambers assume a neutral position on the bill and the delegates complied with his request. Scientists say that pretty soon they will be making clothing out of asbestos that will be silkier than silk and will wear better than homespun. This will be great for the fellow wwho is on his way to hell and in a hurry to get there.

Commonwealth FULLERTON Perils of Childhood I must be all of twenty years ago that mother first gave me Syrup Pepsin. For these Fevers, Colds and Rowl Troubles of Childhood How time flies. My good mother has gone to her rest, but I have faithfully relied upon her judgment and have given Syrup Pepsin to my two children since they were born. It is certainly a noble medicine and never fails of its purpose. I like to recommend it (Name and address will be sent upon request). And in the Evening of Life When age comes creeping on, with bowels relaxed, intestine weak, digestion poor and blood thinned, then is when constipation does its evil work in a night. Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is so palatable, gets so well in the stomach, works so easily, so gently, so kindly with old folks as to accomplish its purpose without grief, pain or other distress. For billiousness, sour mouth, constant turgue, headache, fever, holds and constipation from latency to aid me Syrup Pepsin is recommended everywhere and sold by all drugrists.
